the correct answer is A hope help

The correct answer is A. John C. Calhoun is best described as a two-time vice president who supported slavery and states’ rights.

John Caldwell Calhoun was a political leader of the southern states of the United States, a leading political philosopher of the first half of the nineteenth century and one of the leading actors in the big political disputes in the United States. In these disputes he played an outstanding role as a spokesman and defender of slavery, the nullification and the electoral rights of the minorities of the upper social classes, especially of groups such as slave owners, over the majority of the lower social classes. His ideas are considered vital for the future constitutional crisis that would end in the Civil War, a decade after his death.
